Thanks. I might add that Marylyn's little Katie is also has a birthday today, as does Marylyn's "baby" sister and my MIL. So be sure to wish little Katie one, too! Yes, Katie, I AM 21! I REALLY had my kids young!!! My precious Rachael. Yesterday, Carl and I had to drive the younger two up to camp. Rachael was also going to a different camp, and would be having our pastor pick her up after we left. I asked her to put the clean dishes in the drainer away before she left. So I get home, and the drainer is FULL. She had put them away, then decided the drainer looked "lonely". So she went ahead and washed all the dishes from our brunch earlier that day (that I was going to do when I got home!) She left a note, saying it was an "early Birthday Present", lol! She CAN be sweetie when she wants to be!!!
Here's Katie with her present. We gave it to her yesterday because Charles has stuff going on after work tonight and if we waited too late she wouldn't have been able to play with it. Charles found the set on Craiglist, used and quite cheap. Joy has a great sense of rhythm and is pretty good with it already. Katie just likes to make noise. LOL
Speaking of Jackie and age... I was looking through some old photo albums and found some photos of a camping trip at a little "resort" (really just a camp) that my parents belonged to for a while. This was in October, about 9 months before Jackie and Carl got married. The only photo I found of Jackie from that trip isn't very flattering, so I'm not going to post it (unless I get a big enough bribe. :twisted: ) But here's one of Carl.
Carl's clapping and looking at Keith playing his ukelele. You can see the back of Jackie's head... she's playing the tambourine.
Oh, my!!! We had SO much fun that weekend! This was our "worship service" on Sunday morning. Gosh, I can't believe Carl was EVER that thin!!! Keith, the little guy with the ukelel or guitar or whatever it is, is imitating his dad, the BIG guy with the guitar!
Hope you are having a great birthday, Jackie! Katie, Happy Birthday and enjoy that awesome birthday present!!
Jackie sorry I missed this but hope you had a good day. Happy Birthday girl and also Happy Birthday Katie.... hope you two ate some cake for me.....
